"When life's stresses bring us to the point of being unable to cope with problems on our own, we need to talk with a skilled, effective, understanding professional. Someone sympathetic, yet unbiased, encouraging us to overcome problems and maximize the positive aspects of our life.

They gain awareness and control of the sources of their conflicts, moods, anxieties, inertia, self-pity, isolation and anger, learning effective strategies for improving their lives."
